5.0 out of 5 stars His Majesty hasn't failed me yet., April 3, 2011

Before we replaced our hardware store house brand garbage disposer with a new Waste King (which liquefies food waste instead of turning it into sewer pesto), kitchen sink drain clogs were at least a twice-a-year event. A SoCal plumber advertises on the radio that he'll clear almost any clog for "just $99", so I'm already a few hundred bucks ahead.

Most recently, I used the Drain King to blast a clog out of a slow shower drain at my mother's house. A plumber had ballparked an estimate of around $2,500 for a worst-case scenario after repeated uses of chemical drain cleaners and plungers had failed. With nothing to lose, I called in the Drain King and His Majesty did not disappoint. A nearby garden hose was long enough to reach to the shower drain, so I shoved the Drain King in as far as it would go and held it in place while my mother turned on the water. The Drain King sang its distinctive song. I knew it was working because if the water had backed up with nowhere to go, the pulsating sound would have slowed to a stop. Instead, I let it work for a full five minutes, followed by a 10-minute hot water flush.

Clean drain, happy mother, and another $99 saved. Long live the King!

This is a replacement for one which I mestakenly damaged by not having it totally inserted into the drain. The ballon portion that was outside the drain exploded from the water pressure.

I had a sluggish drain that was progressively getting worse. I tried two bottles of Drano foaming snake, and one bottle of lye, and the clog just got worse. I called my plumber and he "wouldn't be available for awhile."
I decided to try the Drain King, which I picked up at a local hardware store for $10.95 (I used the 1" to 2" Drain King). I hooked it up to a hose, which I fed through the bathroom window. I followed the directions, turning the water on slow at first then progressing to max. The Drain King made a weird "pulsating" noise. I let go for a couple of minutes, and voila! The drain was open! One suggestion: it would be ideal to have one person man the hose water valve to turn water off when needed. Water did leak out the hole where the stopper connects in, but it was easy enough to towel up.
